When Revan arrived at Dreshdae he found Shaardan getting tired of Prospective Sith failing to get his moral questions correct. He then asked Revan what punishment should he give to the "hopefuls." Revan convinced Shaardan to let them go. Shaardan, hoping to gain favor with MasterUthar Wynn, waited for another student to wander into the tomb of Ajunta Pall and retrieve his sword. Unfortunately for him, the student who recovered it was Revan. Shaardan confronted Revan near the entrance of Pall's tomb. He had hoped to intimidate Revan into giving him the sword. However, Revan refused and an angered Shaardan attacked Revan, but was slain. Revan ended up being the one to give the sword to Master Wynn for the prestige.[1]

As an alternative, Revan could give Shaardan a fake sword. Shaardan would then take it (as he had no idea what it really looked like). With the false sword, Shaardan returned to Uthar Wynn only to be strangled for his failure to recognize Revan's deceit. Another possibility is for Revan to give Shaardan the sword. It should be noted that Shaardan fights Revan with a vibro double-blade rather than a lightsaber even though he is seen carrying a lightsaber at all other times.

Revan doesn't even have to recover Ajunta Pall's blade at all to impress Uthar enough to proceed to Naga Sadow's Tomb, so Revan may not encounter Shaardan again after their encounter as Revan arrives on the planet. So Shaardan could remain in the Academy from then on, with the Academy run under Yuthura Ban, or to be killed as Revan proceeds to take down all remaining Sith insurgents left inside the academy.
